Not that sentiment should be ranked, but you’re getting better with each entry.

I love your writing style, Bridey. Let me know when you decide to write a book, so I can preorder it, back it, or whatever I can do to support. I appreciate you. You are the shit.

I've spent a lot of the pandemic watching movies -- 440 so far -- and gravitating to more silly or even terrible comedies. I've been rewatching a lot of 80s/90s movies I haven't seen since they came out, so I had just seen True Lies and have Arizona Dream waiting in a stack too. Watching the passage of time through movies is an odd way to, well, pass the time. The most recent serious rewatch that floored me was Smooth Talk.

Loving your writing, Bridey! There used to be a column in the now-defunct Arthur magazine about "tactical magic" and I remember them recommending dressing up as a completely different person for a day and walking around interacting with people and how it can be an eye-opening and informative experience. Sounds like that's just what you did. Also can't wait to see the video that comes out if it.

Love the sentiment. I'm trying to stay positive, take care of myself, and take care of others but it's fucking weird out here. :) And the JLC energy is always welcome.

Gold Star quarantine. You made it. That's the only grade: pass/fail.
